- Super Bowl XLII Afterthoughts
Alright, so as anyone who doesn’t live under a rock should know, the Super Bowl was Sunday. It was officially the most-watched Super Bowl ever with 97.5 million people tuned in. It was the second most-watched broadcast in American TV history, beaten only by the finale of M*A*S*H, which is a show I’ve never watched. [...]
- Happy Birthday! (to me)
So yes, it’s official. Today, yours truly turns 18 and is now legally able to do stuff like watch porn, go to war, and apply for a position at Hollywood Video yet still cannot drink in the United States. Grievances aside, today is a day of celebration . . . no matter who [...]
- Best Entertainment System Under 3K
Alright, the Super Bowl is fast approaching. I procrastinated about my post on the best entertainment system under $3000. I originally planned it to be only $1000 but I figured that it was best to go all out with everything. In this system, I have included a “standard” HDTV 50″ plasma, [...]
- Cloverfield: Expectations Reassessment
The 2008 movie year has, in my opinion, officially started. This afternoon, I watched the movie that everyone has been talking about (praise or just plain bitching). Cloverfield is JJ Abram’s vision of a true disaster-monster film (yes, it is a monster and yes, you get to see what it looks like). [...]
- Sony Ericsson W580 Review by a Tech Enthusiast
So, for the past few months I had the pleasure of using Sony Ericsson’s W580. I came across this phone by accident of breaking my other phone, and I must say, I am impressed with my decision in such short notice.
As a slider phone, its only 14 mm thick and weighs only 3.3 oz.
The [...]
- Thinnest TV Ever…
OK so for all of you who regularly frequent this blog (although I doubt there is anyone), you’ll know that Noelbert recently wrote this article: http://roastlechon.com/2008/01/08/thinnest-plasma-or-tv-ever/ about the thinnest tv ever. Well the Pioneer Kuro concept might actually be the thinnest ever at only 9 mm, but it’s still a concept and that means [...]
- Internet Safety Tips From Someone Who Doesn’t Care
So, do you have a young kid? Do you have the internet? Are you afraid? Well you should be. As we all know, the internet can be a great resource for learning and it can teach you everything you might need to know and yada yada yada. Well, whatever; we all know that for the [...]
- “That Bird Is NOT My Doppelganger!”
As any SNL fan should know, this is one of the many precious one-liners courtesy of Tracy Morgan as Brian Fellow on the priceless recurring 90s skit Brian Fellow’s Safari Planet. Doppelgangers, for those of you who don’t know, are people who look like you but are not related to you in any [...]
- Hollywood Mourns Tragic Loss of Young Life
As you all may know, 28 year-old Australian actor Heath Ledger was found dead yesterday afternoon in his Soho apartment by his housekeeper and a massage therapist. The autopsy today revealed inconclusive results but many, including the authorities, suspect a drug overdose. Whether it was accidental or not is still up for investigation [...]
- Psycho: Then (1960) and . . . Still Then (1998)
Over the weekend, I had the pleasure of watching the original 1960s version of Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho for the first time in its entirety on Chiller. Sidenote on Chiller: it is the most amazing channel on basic cable ever (clearly I was not at home when I watched this) catering to all my thriller/horror [...]
